#4 of The Legend of Spyro - Sins of the Past


Chapter 4 - Bon Appétit

"Good night Spyro. Have sweet dreams." Cynder said and laid her head next to Spyro's.

Spyro dreamed being on plains alone, surrounded by tall grass. Wind moved grass slowly. He heard someone speaking with language he didn't understand. Spyro moved towards sound to see who would be in there. Shortly after he came to more open area where grass where barely above his pawns and he saw odd looking creature standing on 2 legs looking back right at Spyro's eyes, almost like creature knew he where coming. Creature looked almost like ape he have fought against many times before, but this one where far more slim, fragile yet looked more intelligent. It wore bright metalcoloured platearmors, red long cape and large shield which had golden cross on it. Creature spoke again with odd language, drew sword from it's back and pointed it on Spyro's throat.

But before anything else happened creature vanish into thin air before Spyro's eyes.

Suddenly Spyro was in a small cave. Spyro looked around a bit and saw Cynder and Sparx sleeping in corner and that odd creature again sitting next to Spyro without It's armours this time, wearing grey suit covering most of It's body occluding feets, strange hands and head. Creature started talking with language which Spyro understood this time.

"...I know too much to fall on their hands or worse yet, become one of them. Secrets I hold may mean total destruction of the world in hands who does not understand the full potential of powers my secrets holds." Creature paused and looked briefly over sleeping companions then looked deep into Spyro's eyes.

"If I am ever in situation where my capture is inevitable or someone manages to get into my mind I want you, Spyro the dragon, to kill me at once, without any hesitation. Promise me Spyro."

Spyro awoke to noise not coming far away. He opened eyes. Sun seemed just starting to rise in horizon but it where still dark. Voices sounded like groans of smaller creature. Spyro got up carefully so others would not wake up. He stalk behind small mushroom to see better what creature could be there, hoping that it would be something they could eat. He peek over mushroom and saw brown hairy creature scrabble ground and sniffing small holes it has dug.

"Is that a wild boar? Here?" Spyro whispered to himself, thinking it where too good to be true that boar could just come so close to them where they where resting and not that alone but also than Spyro could not hear any other creatures at all, occluding insects of course. Spyro stalked behind his easy pray. Boar stopped sniffing ground suddenly, probably because it smelled someones presence. Spyro knew he has been spotted so he lunged towards boar which turned around only to see young purple dragon catch it's throat between Spyro's strong jaws. Spyro twinged boar above him and smashed boar's muzzle back on ground. Spyro pulled boar again and smashed it down again. Loud snap came from boar's neck and boar didn't resist anylonger. Spyro dragged boar back to resting place and where others have waken up because the noise what Spyro's Hunt made.

"What was that noise?" Cynder asked before she saw Spyro dragging dead boar to them.

"Imh fumh thms brwl" Spyro murmured while dragging boar.

"What?" Cynder asked. Spyro released his jaws from boar's throat.

"I wound this wild boar just behind those mushrooms."

"Way to go purple boy. Could you have been any bit louder with that? I had nice dream about grassland filled by fat butterflies." Sparx said while rubbing his eyes.

"How long you have been up Spyro?" Cynder asked, glad that Spyro has got something to them to eat.

"Less than a hour" Spyro said and turned to boar. He embed his claws trough boar's skin and started to remove boar's hairy skin piece by piece

"Oh brother, I never get used to that. I lost my appetite now." Sparx said with disgust expression on his face.

"Then don t look." Cynder said to Sparx with drool in her mouth.

"You know what? You also disgust me right now." Sparx said and flew near mushrooms to find some insects.

"Well that's just too bad for you." Cynder replied and turned her gaze on boar. Spyro finished skinning the boar and now took deep breath and started carefully breathe fire on boar. Before long Spyro cooked boar, took bite on it and dragged it near Cynder so she could eat without the need to move closer by herself. Cynder took bite voraciously and swallowed first piece of meat.

"Ahh... This tastes great!" Cynder said with satisfied tone "Aren't you going to eat, Spyro?" Cynder said before she took another bite.

"Just eat. I'll eat when you're finished"

"Oh come on Spyro, You have been without food long as I am. You must be starving." Cynder said after she swallowed.

"It's fine. I'm not that hungry" Spyro said but his stomach betrayed him and growled.

"Your stomach says otherwise. Just eat with me Spyro. Here is more than enough." Cynder said amused.

"Well ok." Spyro said a bit embarrassed. He walked on other side of boar and embed his tooths into meat. Cynder smiled and continued eating.

"BURP! Ah... That I call a breakfast!" Sparx Said filled up. And flew over Spyro

"Soo uh... You haven't finished yet?"

"What it looks like Sparx? We haven't eaten in long time and we're a bit hungry" Spyro said with small piece of meat in his mouth.

"Well it sure looks like it. Just dont eat too much or you're going to have weight issues. Both of you."

"HEY! Are you saying I'm fat?!" Cynder shouted to Sparx

"Uh oh..." Spyro flew behind Spyro.

"Just ignore him" Spyro said

"Weight issues... Argh! You're so lucky I cant get up!"

"Just eat Cynder. I don't know if were getting more of food anytime soon so lets not waste it." Spyro said calmly.

"Listen to Spyro doomgirl. Just ignore me for a moment please." Sparx said behind Spyro still scared a bit. Cynder continued to eat with anger on her face. Sun has risen on horizon and cold moisture air started to warm up. Wild boar has now been eaten, only bones left.

"Ahh... BURP!" Cynder blushed a bit. "I feel like my stomach is about to explode. I've never eaten so much at once. BURP!" She giggled a bit

"Hehe... BURP!" Spyro burped loudly and both Cynder and Spyro started to laugh.

"Eheehe... We should try to find place where we you can rest. I'll explore area a bit. Sparx! You stay with her ok?"

"Stay with HER? Are you nuts? She is devious, black 'n evil she-dragon of doom! She will turn me to ashes!" Sparx protested.

"She cant breath fire."

"But I can breath acid if you want Sparx" Cynder said to Sparx with devious looking face.

"See? See?!" Sparx Tried to make Spyro change his mind.

"You'll be fine" Spyro said and ventured to explore surroundings.

"And so he did it again. Leaving me hang around with evil doomgirl."
